Nice and pretty game. I liked the music and the level design. The concept is something I've seen quite a lot, but the execution is really good.

Fun play! I think if you choose to continue this game, it would be good to add checkpoints after several obstacles so it doesn't feel so punishing when you die. Like i was scared to test if i could kill the enemies by jumping on them because i was scared to die and go back to the start

What a hidden gem!

The art and music were amazing, and the platforming was really fun!

Nice and creative game! 

though i didnt play long because the plattforming without checkpoints got pretty annoying...

I liked the idea of the music!

Feels imprecise in a way that hurts the platforming, but it's a solid idea, and I like that there is a visual indicator of when the next jump will come (even if it didn't help me much). Really cute aesthetics and a nice tune as well!

This chiptune slaps! Some of the platforming was a little tricky but I had fun playing this.

I really like this one! The unfortunate thing though, is that there might be an impossible jump (or I'm just dumb and bad at games) right after the flashing pillars at the start of level 2. I like the idea of losing your jump to the beat (inspired by Necrodancer?) and the music and art looks great, all around making it great!
